Quote from illegal :Can't believe it's been 20 years. Many congratulations.

Thanks for making this game what it is and has been, a huge part of my growing up was spent playing it, and for always staying faithful to your fanbase.

I will keep following your progress for as long as I can.

Well said!

Baffling how it accelerates to 600 mph in only a few seconds, considering the size of the vehicle.

Quote from Wenom :I sent email an sexual interest to a woman(very very older but hot) of three children a week ago. This shame. I'm actually sweating each and everytime i'm thinking this. I can't open my email. This is so embarrasing, Jesus Christ this feeling. **** I hate myself.

Hahaha. I can't say I've gone as far as you, but I totally understand. Just go ahead, man. Face it! You'll never know what good may happen.

Or she'll totally spread the word. Either way, you're in for a ride

So are you back to drinking as much as you used to?

Quote from senn :I remember being on the old forums (racesimcentral was it?) before we got the official LFS forums. Too many years. Haven't played online for a bit.

Racesimcentral it was, indeed. I miss that community.

Quote from Bose321 :Would love to see this running in a modern release. How about shifting weight for leaning, would that be possible?

LFS shifts the weight for you, but only left and right.

Quote from Forbin :I've said it for years: I'd be all over a bike in LFS.

LFS does support motorbikes. As you may know, there are a few cartypes in LFS, and cartype 0 is classified as 'bike'. It modifies your car in a few ways: it gives the car a set of motorcycle tyres with a round-ish top, turning your wheel controls the lean angle and it changed a few engine parameters.

It's been a few years, but if I recall correctly I centered all suspension, changed the front suspension to 'front fork' and the rear to 'trailing arm', zero'd the spacer lengths and some more suspension components. I then moved the fuel tank, engine, driver and some other weights to the center. I used a glass plate as a surrogate model, as I didn't have a real motorbike model to work with.It was quite difficult to find all these in the memory, and it took months to get a real working bike. This was an attempt at replicating a Harley Davidson, with similar specs etc. Unfortunately, as LFS progressed, I couldn't update my mods to later versions and I abandoned the project.

If Scavier wanted to, they could easily release bikes with S3.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :Somewhat related:




Made me realise that the only bike racing sim that really took off is almost 17 - remember GP500?

Sadly the lack of a realistic and mass-producted controller will always be a limiting factor I guess.

I remember that once iRacing mentioned bikes in a customer poll, but I guess it was more an interest check rather than anything serious - even they are wise enough not to get into such murky watersWink

Hah, I made this. Good to see people still remember it. I wasn't good enough at coding to release a standalone version of this mod, and I didn't have a proper motorcycle model, otherwise I'd have shared it. As far as I know, I was the only one who successfully made a motorcycle in LFS. Cool

It's been a while. The Scirocco was due almost seven years ago, if I recall correctly. Seven years!

If anything, this place is a portal to the past. It reminds me that life goes on.

I'm going to sit in a corner and reflect on the past. Meh.

Quote from Wenom :I have been trying to "taper" this day because shaking got out of hand. I could not keep coffeemug in my hand without spilling it all over the place. Today I have had twelve 33cl 4,5% beers and tomorrow I'm trying the "cold turkey" method. I don't fear delirium tremens or "cramps". I'm ready to be sober and myself back again. Full month wasted, I have vague memories about last days of june and it is august now. Everyone can think if there is any sense in this kind of drinking..

Good luck!

Quitting cold turkey can be difficult and dangerous, though. You may want to look for professional help, as suggested by WebMD.

I hope it gets better! My friend was in the same boat as you were. His wake-up call came after a drink-driving episode ended in the back of a lorry. I hope you don't end up the same way. Be careful! Smile

Quote from Wenom :Phew. One full week without a single drip of alcohol. First four days definitely felt like I had dropped from a roof of some building. You guys posted some nice tips. My drinking problem is (hopefully was) mainly caused by my studies. I absolutely hated that bs. Now that I'm graduating later this month I hope I get the hang of things. This is definitely going to the right direction now. I currently don't have any other plan but to stay away from alcohol as long as possible. I don't think it is a good idea to stay sober for lets say 10 or 50 or 100 days because it only gives a reason to drink alot more when that time has passed. "But I was sober for so long so ofcourse I can drink this whole bottle of vodka!" I think you get it.

Hey, I'm glad to see you followed up with progress. Congrats with being sober for a week!

I am wondering though, if you're going to resort to drinking again, as soon as you get stressed again. You won't know until you're there ofcourse, but it's still something to keep in mind.

I agree with your last statement, by the way. I once had a terrible addiction of washing my hands with hot water, which ruined my skin. It just felt like such a relief to feel them burn. Silly, isn't it? Anyways, I managed to refrain from doing so for months, until recently. I felt like washing them hot once wouldn't hurt, and now I'm almost back to where I came from. I tried switching to cold water instead, but it's just not the same. I guess the point that I'm making is that it's easy to fall back into your old habit.

Quote from Wenom :Sorry bump.

Soo... I have been having problems with alcohol lately. Last time it was around 2009. Everything is pretty much okay in my life. I did not drink at all during 2012. So yeah. How did you guys manage with this problem? I just want this to stop. It is no longer good for my health, pancreatitis(?) and so on. My stomach has also been quite "wasted". 2011 my uncle died so managed to stay sober. Pfff this life.

Hey man. I'm glad you're looking for support: that's the first step towards fixing your problems. Reaching out and recognising your addiction is hard to do, and it takes a lot of courage. So you're already on your way to being sober, or back to normal consumption levels. I've been struggling with pyschological problems for years, and I only recently started looking for help, and I feel heaps better already. It took a lot of courage, though.

Deep inside, there might be a reason for you to start drinking. Perhaps you're trying to drown out feelings. How do you like your sober self, compared to influenced self?

Or like smoking can be, is it a habitual addiction? It might just be the habit, a part of your life or routine, and as your tolerance grows, so does your consumption.

I don't know man, I'm not a medic, but I'm just speculating here.

I don't.

I recently put my wheel in the loft, where it will stay until there are new games or releases worth playing.

Besides, I haven't even got time to race. I put most of my spare to good use nowadays.

Richard Burns Rally is worth playing though, especially with RSRBR-mods.

I'd join you for a few beers, but I have to stay sober until the first of june.

Have fun, don't forget to visit the red light district.

A real must-see is the train to Utrecht. Amsterdam is a shithole.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :Ja precies, dat geneuk met de troon zal ons ook niet raken.

Maar je leeft nog, ik heb je wel gemist man!

Ik ben tegenwoordig alleen nog op het IRC-kanaal te vinden. Eens per week lees ik dit forum nog, maar daar houdt het wel op. Zodra LFS zich verder ontwikkelt zal ik me wel wat meer vertonen.

Tot over een week.

Hallo.

Dat koningslied kan me aan mijn royale aars roesten. Het enige koningslied is het Wilhelmus natuurlijk!

Niet dat ik wat van de kroning zal meekrijgen hoor, want dan ben ik toch lam.

Overtaking two cars in a row isn't dangerous, as long as you can see far enough ahead.

I'm pretty tolerant, but driving through traffic like he did is ****ing madness.
